We took a bus from Ho Chi Minh (which we thought was insanely hot) to the even hotter city in Cambodia - Phenom Penh. When we arrived in Cambodia we learned that the city was celebrating a holiday which meant that practically every restaurant and shop ... Read more >

The short story is that Mark & I bought our motorbikes (Otis & Shimmie) in Hanoi and drove them South through the country ending in Ho Chi Minh. Susie joined us for the first part of the trip and rode on the back of Mark's bike while I took her ... Read more >

The best part about Northern Vietnam was that Susie was able to visit us there. I can't pretend that I loved Hanoi and it didn't help that it was raining and cold the first few days we were there BUT it did manage to clear up for when Susie was there.... Read more >

While in Northern Laos we kept hearing about a 4-day loop done via motorbike through central Laos. We decided to do it as a test run because we thought we might want to buy bikes in Vietnam. The loop starts and ends in this little town along the Mekong ... Read more >

Vang Vieng is one of the strangest towns we have stayed in. Here, we managed to find the best pizza in SE Asia, river tubing, caves, and pretty much every person from our slowboat from Thailand.
Vang Vieng used to be a crazy party city in Laos ... Read more >

Continuing our "loop" through SE Asia, we decided to take a slow boat to Laos rather than a painful 24+ hour bus ride. The slow boat was described to us as more of a party scene where people are really social and daydrink while on this cool boat. The ... Read more >

Almost our entire hostel boarded a super windy bus to Pai, Thailand and we made it to hippie city turned completely westernized tourist town. Here, I can do things like eat eggs, bacon, and toast for breakfast, eat $2 Thai food for dinner, and lay in ... Read more >

We made it to Chaing Mai, Thailand and Mark & I (mostly Mark) decided it was time to really join the backpacking world and stay at a hostel in a dorm room. Due to Mark's good Hostelworld skills we ended up having the potentially nicest dorm ... Read more >

Khao Yai National Park: I don't have much to say about this other than thank goodness that I followed this lonely planet advice. Minus our trip to a bat cave, this was a super awesome trip complete with wild elephant spotting. The bat cave was actually ... Read more >

I'm too old for even one night in Bangkok. The drinking scene is too intense for my 25 year old self but 21 year old me would have loved it. The high note was the fact that Mark & I spent Valentine's Day here and I got to plan the entire day including ... Read more >

We managed to make it to Hong Kong after 1 cancelled and 2 delayed flights!
I'd say we're having a rough adjustment to the time change. We wake up early, find an activity for the morning and return around 2pm to nap and watch Human Planet on ... Read more >

By far the best air mattress I've ever slept on was in SF. Thanks to my best gal pal Abby & her boyfriend Joe for letting their unemployed friends live in their living room for 5 days.
Some of my most favorite people live in SF.... Read more >
